Homemade Router Table and A Car Jack As A Router Lift.

Nice job on that router table, The use of the jack is very inventive. I like the use of feather boards , too.,They sure help to keep the cut uniform along the part!!

Great looking router table and the jack is a good addition. From the quality of your router table, you don’t have to wait till you are grown up to start working. I’m sure anything furniture you make will sell. Keep up the good work.

Hi Well done. Blue knobs you sure you are in Ireland ha ha ha ha should be green. Serious the box on the jack not interfering with any vents. Regards Roger

Nice job!! I like the car jack idea. Take a look at b2rtch’s unisaw thread. He uses a jack but came up with a good system so the router can still push air from the ventilation fins on the top

Looks great Adam. Good work. I second Tamboti’s concern about the air vents being blocked. If the wood is strong enough you could drill a lot of small holes in it so the air can flow through.

I saw this idea used in a FWW article a few years ago about a guy who could store a whole shop into a 5×5 storage closet.
